Details
This is a set of 'difficult' stones that are confused with diamond, not so much because they look like diamond to a jewellery expert, but because they are hard to measure on electronic testers, you need to see exactly what reading your particular tester gives on each of:
Y.A.G
G.G.G
Synthetic sapphire
Synthetic spinel
Zircon
Strontium titanate
Cubic zirconia
...and then you can see how that reading matches your unknown stone
Each stone rests in its clearly-labelled indentation, but the stones themselves are not labelled. If you drop them, you won't know which is which. We could work it out. But not easily. We might have to send some of them to a gemmologist. If you return these to us (whether because you've mixed them up, or simply because you have decided you don't like them) - there will be a £50.00 charge to sort them out.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
What size loupe would you need to distinguish between diamonds and simulants?
Standard magnification for gemstones is 10X, the more you spend the better the quality.
e.g. 10X20 Quicktest
or Zeiss-comb -
What mm size are the stones please?
5mm.
